So how much student debt do we think Burgess has built up over time?

I am pretty sure he has invested neither money nor time in his”education”.

I question if he ever did keep going after a year or two, we know he's a liar, he could just say he's "pursuing" and hasn't been to a class in a decade, furthermore, a lot of colleges will make you re-start your degree after a certain amount of years have passed and you haven't graduated yet

Damage was already done by Alessi about Burgess’ lack of/embellishment of his educational background. Brennan cannot rehabilitate him on this…the jury has already made up their minds about him imo.

 

[Leilei]

Brennan just compared Burgess to Steve Jobs and Bill Gates.. oh, and Oprah Winfrey

Only thing is none of them claimed to have a degree they didn’t…

Pretty sure that Oprah has a degree from an HBCU.
Hmm.
IMO.

Yes, IMO his ‘continuing education’ doesn’t mean much. Years ago, I started a masters program I didn’t enjoy, so I didn’t complete it. Do I get to represent myself as ‘pursuing’ that Masters degree? Seems duplicitous. I want to see his transcript and the most recent class he actually took.

Brennan describing anything from this guy as “sooo accurate” is pure comedy. Sadly for Brennan, saying it doesn’t make it so.

None! Apparently college isn’t needed to get a degree.

Do we even know what this man's financial situation was when he started college and throughout the years he's taking classes? Did he maybe opted to pay as you go, so he had no student debt, while working different jobs to finance that education and his living expenses?

I’m seeing a Comms degree from Tennesse State University (a HBCU) for Oprah - competed 1986. She also has honorary doctorates. Jeez, Brennan does not seem to know how to fact check…

Oprah! Challenging Graduates To Face Their Reality And Embrace Their Achievements

Oprah came ready to motivate graduates to be steadfast in who they are and in their purpose. She exclaimed, “Do not let the world make an imposter syndrome out of you.” She urged graduates to listen to the small voice they have inside to find the truth about how they should lead their lives.

Counterfeit and fraud come to mind.

Why would we need to know that?

Trying to talk to this guy and convince him that he is flat out wrong is like talking to a 4 yr old. SB is convinced he is an expert, so move along

I did this, fully funded my college while working, a whole Master's degree in Software Engineering. I can guarantee it does not take 17 years. I needed an extra year, but I don't make a 10th of the mistakes he does so maybe that's the difference.

The internet always wins!

No kidding! Any lawyer that is not using the crowdsourcing effect when it comes to these big cases, is uhmm not smart LOL

The rest of the internet has caught on to what we have all been doing on WS's for years haha

That said... social media/news/commentators can make it hard to wade through all the 'garbage'. JMO

We don't though know what his life was like so your life experience and his could differ greatly. I think it would be valuable to know his life situation before judging.
